Characterization of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (Anammox) bacteria from local wastewater treatment plant
Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) process plays an important role in biological nitrogen removal. The bacteria catalyzing anammox process belongs to phylum Planctomycetales. The objective of this research is to characterize the anammox bacteria from leachate sample collected from a local wastew...
